The National Hispanic Cultural Center’s Despedida and Community Celebration is an all-ages celebration of heritage and folk tradition, including plenty of ofrendas on display. The event offers up a supply of pan de muerto, which is more delicious than its name might imply, and mmm-mmm, Mexican chocolate. Live music and poetry round things out. For those who can't swing the celebration, as well as those who just want to get another look at the ofrendas, the NHCC's Día de los Muertos exhibition will remain open through Sunday, Nov. 3.
